Women to Be I'eted. ' The crowd attending Buyers' week in Portland, August 6-11. is to be picked '. up bodily Thursday of that week and . transported to Oregon City. Two steamers have been chartered to - move visiting merchants up the river, Z.', and others will be procured if required. Th Undine and the Grahome are the . ... boats. One will leave the dock at the Supple Ballin shipyards and the .'Mother will load at the foot of Taylor. ' ' street. .,' ' On arrival at Oregon City the boats will pass through the locks and will tie up at the mid-stream dock of the paper mills. , - -- iach boat Is to carry a committee ' Oregon City business men and a - band. ... The great industries clustered around Willamette Falls will be opened to in- fipection, guides being furnished for the T... Oregon City Manufacturing Company - plant, the Hawley Paper and Pulp Mill and the Crown-Willamette Mill. After ward the visitors will be taken to 11c LiOughliu Park for a box dinner. " Attendance Reeord Expected. The Chamber of Commerce commit tee in charge of Buyers' week last , night announced its belief that the attendance is to break all records this year. A large number of merchants who have come to Portland in previous years are going to repeat this year, and they are bringing along many of their friends. - While the big things in the minds of '.i visitors is the large stocks of merchan- dise, in which Portland leads the en "' tire. Northwest, the correspondence 011 file indicates that up-state merchants '". are keenly alive to the part that ship . building is to play in .the prosperity 'I . of the state for the next few years. ' They declare that they want to visit the yards, see what ships are actually . 'i on the ways and determine what ma terials are used and where they come ' ' from. If the yards shall employ an army of labor, numbering thousands, the up-state districts realize that they will be called upon to supply ma- . . terials for construction and tor feed ing the men. Thursday morning is to be devoted to visiting shipyards, and it is thought that the visitors can be assembled at the Supple & Ballin yard in time for luncheon aboard one of the boats. The steamers for Oregon City will bo boarded at 1:30. Deck dancing to the tune of the "Merry Water Dog" will be programmed for the return trip at night. j Visiting Women Provided For. It Is expected that most visitors this year will be accompanied by their wives and daughters. Preparations -are : under way to supply these visitors with escorts and care for them while their husbands and fathers are busy in the big warehouses. A feature of- the week will be the great furniture display in the Blake McFall building on Fourth street. All the vacant floors of that building will be turned over to the furniture manu facturers of Portland, and there they will display for the first time a com plete exhibit of articles manufactured here. It is expected that the exhibit will attract thousands of . Portland people during Buyers' week. It is certain that thousands of them do not know of the magnitude of the furniture business in this city. Furniture dealers from outside of Portland will have a special ltn of en tertainment offered in their honor. They will be guests of the manufac turers. No previous Buyers' week has ever ffered bo elaborate a programme as has been arranged for this, the fifth annual at Portland. A coupon ticket will be used as usual. The- coupons Kive free admission and participation in all events. Following are the committees in charge of the various features of en tertainment: Monday Night Reception Committee. Aug ust c. TV".

They had a fine trip and enjoyed every minute of It. they re FINE PAINTING HERE Exhibit of Titian Masterpiece Not to Be Made, However. LICENSE LAW IS IN WAY 'Christ Raising Liazarus From the Dead" Is Subject, and Owner Declares Genuineness of Mas terpiece Is Froved. A wonderfully fine painting, with all the characteristics shown in the work of the great master, Titian, is now in Portland, but probably will not be ex hibited here because of a city ordi nance requiring circus license for such an exhibition and absence of a suitable downtown available place. William Crawford Anderson, who arrived yes terday from California, Is the owner of the picture and has it with him at the New Perkins Hotel. "Christ Raising Lazarus From the Dead" is the subject and the story is told in all its mysterious beauty In the coloring made famous by Titian the deep browns, reds and golden yellows. There are eight figures or characters in the picture and they are arranged acroua the canvas and. la three groups, At the left there is the Christ an Titian painted him in a red robe and with left hand outstretched. At his feet there is a boy and beside him. Mary looking up with expression of adoration and love. Lazarus with flesh still palo and with attitude of one Just taken from the tomb is having his wrists unthonged by John. Three others are looking on with awe, surprise and wonder. One of these Is Martha. The other two are disciples. Genainenesa Declared Proved. "There is every proof that this is a genuine Titian," said Mr. Anderson yes terday, "and I am. Indeed, sorry that we cannot exhibit it here.' - There is the pride of the owner and the art lover in his admiration for his picture. "See those wonderful reds and those deep browns. See how the left hand Is emphasized in every figure. That was one of Titian's keynotes." The painting is 38x48 inches but when properly placed and lighted has the appearance of being larger. The characters are all distinct and the work, although bearing the cracks and marks of time and hard usage, is equal to close ' inspection. Storm clouds against a little blue of the sky and the low hills In the distance afford the only introduction of coloring In blues or tints other than the three prevailing tones. Picture Captured by Napoleon. Mr. Anderson declares that the paint ing was cut from a frame and captured In Italy in the Napoleonic wars and was brought to America by Napoleon's brother, who married an American, Miss Patterson, and was left with the family of Admiral Bounce, of Balti more. Later the picture found its way to Connecticut, and was owned by the head of a large piano house, from whom ilr. Sates, ol Worcester, bought it, and Mr. Anderson says he bought it from Mr. Bates. He has exhibited the painting at Stanford University and some other places in the South.
